Wilshire, there’s a typo that made me insane for the last couple of hours.
In the plugin help says:
Example: sections=

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
No prob. Just thought I was going crazy for a while. =)
Any idea on next version’s ETA? I’ve been doing some changes to this function so that it fetches related articles by keyword and if you are releasing it in a nearby future, I will halt my current work and wait for the next version.

Version 0.15 is already in the works and will be released on or about May 1st after my CSS Reboot is complete. The rss_suparchive_bycat will have quite a bit of changes in it.
If you want to email me your changes maybe I can incorporate them.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
Humm.. they are quite simple and probably would not fit anyone else’s case.
I added a keywords=“0/1” option to search for articles on another section, where the keyword used in those articles, match the current section name. It’s working partially but I’m having problems with the (unchanged) plugin so I don’t really know.
These problems with a fresh installation are strange. Superarchive_bycat doesn’t have results in some categories although there are articles that match the criteria.
In Section A I’m calling articles from Section B where their second category option match the current article first category option, using the following tag:
txp:rss_suparchive_bycat section=“sectionb” timeframe=“ALL” showheader=“1” headerlabel=“Related articles” linktosection=“sectionb” useartcat2=“1” useartcats=“1” showcatcount=“0” showcats=“0”
First problem is not getting results when there are plenty of articles that match the criteria. And problem #2, is that when there are no results, there’s an extra closing div tag that breaks my current layout.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
rbl – My guess is that you’re having a problem with the timeframe. There was a bug in the regular suparchive tag regarding the use of the ALL timeframe and I think I fixed it there but not in the bycat version. Do the missing articles have a future posted date by any chance?
My only other suggestion is to wait on it for a few days. I’ve made a bunch of changes so you might find that it works when you get the new version.

my apologies, made some comments regarding “ALL” on the main thread without seeing that there is a separate thread for bycat. I see now, that you’re aware of that.

No problem. I saw your post in the other thread first and replied there.

Yes, they are. I have some older articles but they are drafts. I’ll wait for the next release then.
Thanks =)

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
Great plugin – but would be even better if you could exclude the current article from the list of related articles. Is this possible?

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
Thats a good idea. Right now it doesn’t exclude but I can take a look at that.

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
Thank you very much. This is such a useful plugin (as if you didn’t know that!) but it really looks a bit silly when there are only 1 or 2 related articles listed, and the article you’re busy reading is one of them!

Re: [plugin] [ORPHAN] rss_suparchive_bycat - related articles by category
Yeah, thats always bother me a little but not ever enough to make me fix it until now. It’ll be in the next release.

Hi Wilshire!
I’ve installed the new version and the problems I’ve reported last time are still there.
